I bought this book because of its intriguing title and appealing cover. I'm sure glad I did. I'm beginning to execute Chef/Nutritionist Forberg's suggestions into my daily life. Not only are her recipes delicious, I feel more energetic---and its only been a few weeks.

Who needs botox when berries, beans, greens, fish and other scrumptious natural foods will do the trick!

I am a fitness professional, and last May I attended a lecture at UCLA on anti-aging foods taught by the author. I loved everything she talked about and immediately ordered her book from Amazon. For the last month I have eaten mainly the foods she extolled (fruits, veggies, nuts, olive oil, fish, soy) and have made many of the recipes in the book. I have never felt better!In fact,I am planning on giving this book to all my training clients for Christmas. Even my husband and teenage kids love most of the recipes. Every recipe has been absolutely delicious and fairly simple to make. You may need to go to a special market that sells organic or ethnic food to buy some of the ingredients rather than find everything at the supermarket, but it's worth it. My only complaint is that she didn't include more recipes using cocoa powder. It has the highest antioxidant rating, yet she features it in only 3 recipes--none of them dessert! I hope Cheryl does a second book. Atkins, shmatkins! This is the way to eat!

I have always wanted to learn about the benefits of antioxidants and this book certainly gave me the information I needed and wanted. Great book and extremely informative!! Interesting and yummy recipes too!

The American Institute for Cancer Research recommends this same style of eating, with a focus on antioxidants and getting back to home-made food using basic ingredients. The book provides a lot of motivation and easy-to-understand explanations of what modern research has identified in terms of the cancer-fighting and age-fighting benefits of each food group. Good recipes too.

Yes, apparently it is possible to have great tasting food that is great for your health too! The Stop The Clock! Cooking: Defy Aging--Eat the Foods You Love, by Cheryl Forberg has been life changing for me. For the first time in years I am enjoying cooking again, loving the food, losing weight and feeling better than I have for a long time now.

This book is not just another round of recipes and ideas that you've seen a hundered times before...it is chock full of marvelous fresh ways of adding healthy, exciting ingredients to your cooking and turning out really special meals that are fit for a King!

The book also helps you understand how these healthy ingredients affect your body, all in an easy to understand format. Put this book on the top of your "must have book list"!
